"Double Dutch"

8 x 10"

This evening the Morris & Whiteside Gallery in Hilton Head is hosting a Holiday Open House and my new paintings will be on exhibit along with Ken Auster's new work. I'm unable to attend this time, week 2 of nursing a herniated disk, but I'd appreciate you visiting the gallery if you're in the area.

Included in my grouping'Met Life' - a woman seemingly engaging with 'Madame Joseph-Michel Ginous' by Vincent Van Gogh with his 'Sunflowers' to her left.

This is an especially fine one of your museum series I think. It's as though they (the patron and the painted) are having an intense but quite pleasant chat. I love the patron's hair and the easy looseness of the frame. I getting ready to do an "art museum" painting. Mine feel very different from yours.I hope your disk is getting better.
